The limestone production scheduling for an open pit mine can be described as determining the order in which 'blocks' should be extracted to achieve a specific goal, while taking into account a range of physical and resource restrictions [].The availability of high-quality raw materials in sufficient quantities is critical to the success of a cement plant's operation.
Open pit mining method is one of the surface mining methods that has a traditional cone-shaped excavation and is usually employed to exploit a near-surface, nonselective and low-grade zones deposits. It often results in …
SURFACE LIMESTONE MINING: All over the world, limestone is generally mined from a quarry or through open-pit mining. This method is the easiest way to remove limestone without causing much destruction. In surface mining or …
Current design practices are examined and a discussion of safe mine layouts is presented as a first approach towards weighing the demands for increased production against increased risk. …
A case study of limestone mining in hilly Meghalaya region of India forms a part of the description where its feasibility exists.
